I thought this was going to end up a problem. As I said, I can see where some people might view 1 & 2 as being in agreement with each other. I can also see where 2 & 4 could be in agreement. Question 2 seems to allow for those who dont really want to declare their own opinion to be right for everyone.
Its all in the viewpoint. You dont have to agree with that view in oder to agree that some people might have viewed it that way when they voted. So I think I would be slow in declaring a winner based on this poll.
I took classes in propoganda in the military (in community college they call it advertising, and in university the PolSci folks call it biased wording). Im fully aware that a fair poll is a VERY difficult thing to write.

True. I could cover all possible options, but it would take significantly more than 4 options. I was trying to keep number of options rather low. Although perhaps there should be another "neutral option", something along the lines "I dobn't care, period!" now that I think about it.
